mpas-d.exe?

My Kiero firewall informs me that something is trying to install or update a
file, "mpas-d.exe".
It is in a Windows system folder.
I can not find anything mentioned in MS Knowledge Base or Google about it.

Can anyone help?

TIA

Thank you.
Any idea why no mention of it in anywhere?

Same question from me -- I just got this message for the 1st time this
morning, and there's not a single mention of mpas-d.exe in any web posting
or newsgroup, other than this one thread.

I have also got this message today (14-06-2006). Does anyone has seen
more information about this file (mpas-d.exe)?
